SUMP-PLUS - SUSTAINABLE URBAN MOBILITY PLANNING: PATHWAYS AND LINKS TO URBAN SYSTEMS
In recent years, the shift towards sustainable mobility has gathered pace, with Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans (SUMPs) crucial to driving this development. Despite their success, there remain some gaps.
CIVITAS SUMP-PLUS is a three-year project, which started in September 2019, helping towns and cities of all sizes and at varying stages of development to bridge the implementation gap and become accessible, green and liveable places where people can easily move from A to B.
SUMP- PLUS core objectives are:
SUMP-PLUS is creating new approaches and tools and introducing these in co-creation laboratories in six cities - Antwerp (Belgium), Alba Iulia (Romania), Greater Manchester (UK), Klaipeda (Lithuania), Lucca (Italy), and Platanias (Greece).
The SUMP-PLUS consortium includes six cities and 10 technical partners among which local authorities, academic institutions, mobility consultancies, public transport associations, city networks, and non-profit organisations. MemEx is responsible for the evaluation of the City Labs and support the Municipality of Antwerp (coordinator) in the scientific management of the project.
